Back in August, I had one of the best domestic flight experiences in all my years of flying on Delta, however, not only was the flight experience top notch due to the above and beyond service given by the airlines, I also took notice to new or different meal try concept presented by Delta Airlines, and I must say I really liked it!

Flying often, it is rare that the meal try stands out to me. I feel like most domestic business/first food comes out on standard cafeteria-style trays that ...

Having just returned from China two days prior, on Monday evening, I was enroute back to the West Coast of the US for some meetings – and client entertainment.

Or, free access to Twitter, and only Twitter. This time, it's 15 free minutes of full Gogo service on every Delta flight through the end of June.

My bet? After ...

I usually find my self displeased with the quality of meals on domestic first class flights - on Delta or other US-based carriers.  Scorched pastas, chicken drenched in sauce and substances marketed as beef are regrettably the norm these days.

A few days ago, I was changing my seat for a flight from LAS-JFK and when going through the seat selection process, I noticed a button to click for "special services."  I was curious and wondered exactly what could be had under this category. ...

Recently on a flight from JFK to LAX I found myself in economy. As my status with Delta has dropped in recent months, I am finding myself in the back of the bus more and more. Honestly I’m fine with this. After all you get wait you pay for. 

So on this flight form JFK to LAX I found myself incredibly hungry. Not wanting to opt for any of Delta’s Overpriced under seasoned cold cuts or cheese and fruit plates I decide to try out their $6 flight Delight Box. I requested ...
